Orange Perspex Medical Kit

A translucent orange plastic container with a snap-lock lid, small enough to carry but sturdy enough to protect its contents. The kit bears the same sterile-white medical cross sticker as the sprays inside, suggesting it was originally stocked with emergency pharmaceuticals. Harry grabs it to administer a specialized revivification spray to the frozen corpse’s revived crew member, demonstrating its role as field medical equipment rather than a general tool.
